("RLJE") shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock") of RLJE (a share of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, a "Warrant Share"). On October 30, 2018, DEH fully exercised the remainder of its Class B Warrant by surrendering indebtedness outstanding under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, by and among RLJE, certain subsidiaries of RLJE as Guarantors, and DEH, dated as of October 14, 2016, as amended (the "Credit Agreement"), having a principal amount equal to the aggregate exercise price for the Warrant and was issued 6,637,429 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per Warrant Share.

- F3On October 31, 2018, immediately prior to the merger of River Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of DEH ("Merger Sub"), with and into RLJE, with RLJE surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of DEH (the "Merger"), pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2018, by and among Robert L. Johnson, The RLJ Companies, LLC, RLJ SPAC Acquisition LLC (together with Robert L. Johnson and The RLJ Companies, LLC, the "Johnson Entities"), DEH and AMC Digital Entertainment Holdings LLC (the "Contribution Agreement"), the Johnson Entities contributed to DEH all of the shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock from RLJE with an exercise price of $3.00 and an initial exercise date of May 20, 2015 (the "2015 Warrants", and each share of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a 2015 Warrant, also a "Warrant Share") beneficially owned by the Johnson Entities in exchange for membership interests in DEH.
- F4The 2015 Warrant and shares of Common Stock held by the Johnson Entities were valued in accordance with the merger consideration paid to holders of Common Stock and 2015 Warrants pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 29, 2018 and as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 2, 2018, by and among AMC (solely for purposes of Section 10.7 thereof), DEH, Merger Sub, and RLJE (the "Merger Agreement").
- F5AMC may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock, Warrants and 2015 Warrant indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Common Stock, Warrants and 2015 Warrant are held directly by DEH. Prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, DEH was a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of AMC Digital Entertainment Holdings LLC. Following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement and upon the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), DEH became a majority-owned subsidiary of AMC Digital Entertainment Holdings LLC, with a minority interest held by RLJ SPAC Acquisition LLC. AMC Digital Entertainment Holdings LLC is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of IFC Entertainment Holdings LLC.

Remarks
On October 31, 2018, at the Effective Time, RLJE and Merger Sub consummated the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. Upon the Effective Time, all securities of RLJE owned by DEH immediately prior to the Effective Time (including the Common Stock, the 2015 Warrants and shares of Series D-1 preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share) ceased to be outstanding and were cancelled without any payment of consideration therefor. As a result of the Merger, the Common Stock ceased trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market and became eligible for termination of registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Accordingly, RLJE will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Certification and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with respect to the Common Stock, requesting that the Common Stock be deregistered under the Exchange Act and that the reporting obligations of the Company with respect to the Common Stock under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be suspended. As a result, AMC has checked the box to indicate that it will no longer be subject to Section 16 reporting with respect to RLJE.
